84: Is this Taoist temple legitimate?

The four Cat Girls bowed respectfully, holding jade bottles and spirit pendants, then quietly exited the bamboo building, their steps light as they went to carry out their tasks.

Quiet returned to the bamboo building.

Su Lin watched their figures disappear, then turned to Ye You and said, "This month is almost over, and I have a plan."

He looked into Ye You's eyes and continued, "I want to visit the Sect I once founded when the time comes.

Do you still know anything about that Sect now?"

As his voice fell, the lazy smile that had been on Ye You's face slowly receded.

She didn't answer immediately, but something in her aura seemed to be changing.

The Spiritual Qi in the bamboo building fluctuated slightly, and the flow of air also stagnated.

"Sect?"

Ye You softly repeated these two words, her voice very low, "Does Revered Master feel uncomfortable staying in the Myriad Demon Forest?"

She stood up, barefoot, and walked step by step towards Su Lin.

The aura belonging to the Body Integration Stage silently permeated the air.

Ye You didn't release any pressure, but it was more unsettling than any pressure.

"Isn't it good here? There are no outsiders to disturb us, the Myriad Demon Forest is my territory, it's very safe."

She stopped in front of Su Lin, "Only Revered Master and I."

Su Lin looked at the possessiveness reigniting in her eyes and sighed softly in his heart.

"It's very good here, and very safe, but I, as your Revered Master, cannot hide here forever."

"Why not?"

Ye You took a step forward, her arms once again wrapping around Su Lin.

"Isn't it good to stay here? Whatever Revered Master wants, Youer can get for you.

If Revered Master feels bored, Youer can keep you entertained.

Those enemies, if one comes, I'll kill one; if a group comes, I'll kill them all.

As long as you stay here, there will be no danger whatsoever."

"Youer," Su Lin raised his hand and gently stroked her long hair, "Are you trying to keep me, your Revered Master, captive?"

Ye You's body stiffened slightly, but she did not deny it.

Su Lin continued, "My enemy, as your Revered Master, is the Heavenly Dao Will.

You can endure a Heavenly Tribulation for me today, but what about next time?

When it unleashes even greater power, what will you do then?

Are you going to exhaust your Origin again and again for my sake?"

"I'm willing!" Ye You suddenly looked up.

"As long as I can protect Revered Master, what does it matter if I exhaust my Origin! At worst, your disciple will Cultivate it back!"

"But I'm not willing."

Su Lin interrupted her, "You are my disciple, not my shield."

"Daochu Sect."

He spoke the name.

"You should all still remember that place.

Back then, all seven of you lived there together, Cultivating there together."

A trace of trance appeared in Ye You's expression.

That place held her earliest memories, meeting Revered Master, having fellow disciple.

"I want to go back and see it."

"And I also want to rebuild it."

"I, as your Revered Master, need a place to settle, a place where all of you can always return."

"You still have several Senior Sisters; sooner or later, everyone will reunite."

Su Lin's founding of the Daochu Sect was a long time ago, and it was from then that he began to take on disciple one after another.

Ye You pondered for a moment; if Revered Master wanted to rebuild the Daochu Sect, perhaps in the future, that would be her true home.

A home with Revered Master in it.

"That's fine too."

Ye You suddenly smiled.

"If Revered Master wants to rebuild the Sect, your disciple will naturally accompany you."

Ye You's efficiency was extremely high.

After deciding to leave with Su Lin, she immediately summoned the most steadfast Bear King from the Myriad Demon Forest.

"I will be accompanying Revered Master to leave the Myriad Demon Forest for a period of time."

Ye You's tone was calm, "This place is temporarily entrusted to you.

Remember, I do not wish to see any changes in the Myriad Demon Forest when I return."

The Bear King bowed his head: "As you command, your subordinate will definitely guard the Myriad Demon Forest with his life."

"The Myriad Demon Forest is mine, but it is even more Revered Master's private garden."

"You must protect this place well, and wait for us to return for inspection next time."

She deliberately emphasized the word 'inspection'.

"Demon Lord, rest assured, the Myriad Demon Forest will always be Lord Su's home."

"Very good, you may withdraw."

The Bear King accepted the order, bowed again, then stood up and quickly disappeared outside the bamboo building.

Only the two of them remained in the bamboo building.

Su Lin asked, "Is everything arranged?"

"It's arranged, with the Bear King here, the Myriad Demon Forest won't fall into chaos," Ye You replied.

Su Lin nodded: "Then how shall we go?"

"Of course, we'll go on my thing."

Ye You snorted.

"Revered Master can't use Fifth Junior Sister's gaudy cloud brocade again; I find it an eyesore."

She waved her hand, and instantly a massive flying boat, constructed from ferocious beast bones and dark vines, appeared in the air.

This flying boat had a fierce appearance, with faint Demonic Qi swirling around it.

"This is the netherworld boat."

Ye You pulled Su Lin onto the flying boat, "It's much faster and sturdier than Fifth Junior Sister's soft cloud brocade."

The interior of the flying boat was spacious, with thick fur of unknown Yao Beasts covering the floor, making it extremely comfortable to walk on.

Ye You pressed Su Lin into the main seat.

"Revered Master, please sit properly."

"Before we depart, I'll organize the information."

"Is it about the Daochu Sect?" Su Lin asked.

Ye You nodded, "The old site of the Daochu Sect is still there, and for a hundred years, it has maintained the scale of a medium-sized School."

Her tone shifted, "But it has encountered some trouble recently."

"Ever since you, Revered Master, disappeared, various Schools went to the Daochu Sect, perhaps to search for treasures, or perhaps to confirm whether you had truly vanished."

"However, the several Elders you left behind back then were truly powerful, and they repelled all these enemies."

Ye You continued, "But that was all in the past."

"The situation has changed in recent years; I just received the latest intelligence from my scouts."

Su Lin asked, "What change?"

Ye You looked at Su Lin, "The Daochu Sect is currently at war with another School."

Su Lin's expression shifted, "At war?"

"Yes, the opponent is a School called Dao Pavilion."

Upon hearing this, Su Lin's expression paused briefly, "Dao Pavilion??"

Ye You nodded: "Yes, this School suddenly rose many years ago, acting domineeringly and specifically bullying some medium and small-sized Schools."

Su Lin responded, "This Dao Pavilion you speak of, is it legitimate?"

She continued to report, "This Dao Pavilion is quite sinister.

Its Sect Master calls himself Dao Pavilion Old Ancestor, his cultivation is unknown, but his methods are ruthless.

The Daochu Sect is currently presided over by Grand Elder Xuan Zhen; he is already in the Void Refining Stage, but he still suffered some losses at the hands of the Dao Pavilion Old Ancestor."

"The war has lasted three years, and Grand Elder Xuan Zhen is still struggling to hold on.

If it weren't for the Daochu Sect's mountain-protecting formation, which was originally laid down by you, Revered Master, it would have been breached long ago."

Su Lin's expression darkened.

Xuan Zhen.

He remembered that name.

He was one of the most loyal Elders under him back then, rigid in character, but the most efficient in execution.

A hundred years passed, and Xuan Zhen was still guarding the Daochu Sect.

After speaking, Ye You looked at Su Lin, killing intent surging in her eyes.

"Revered Master, a mere Dao Pavilion dares to touch your foundation?"
